Beginning March 2009, students have the option of "score choice," which enables them to pick and choose which SAT scores to send to which colleges. Under this system, students are better off taking the SAT I as many times as possible. You can simply pick your highest scores and only send those to your colleges. Score choice does not allow students to pick and choose within sections or components of the SAT I (e.g., pick the math score from one test sitting by the critical reading score from another). But most colleges will pick and choose for you. Be sure to select score choice when dealing with the College Board to ensure your best scores are the ones sent to the colleges.
One good strategy is to take the test in March (sign up by Feb. 10th) or May (sign up by Mar. 31st), and then take it again in June.
